Hallow Fen Deylltry.

Hallow Fen was celebrated Monday
night in very much the usual way. There
were host of ''taffy- pullings" in all quar-
ters of the city, and the demand for mo,
lasses was something terrific in conse'
quence. The number OF these little social
gatherings was very great, there not being
o neighborhood in the entire length and
breadth OF the town where they were not as
thich AS flies in June, if the comparison
may be allowed.
But all the young people were not at
these little affairs. Not by a good deal.
The small boy, and in some instances the
small girl. were abroad on mischief bent,
and the way the gates and shutters suf-
fered was a caution. Daylight yesterday
morning saw the gas-posts and tree-boIes
in all parts of town, but especially in resi-
dence districts like the Island and the
South Side, decorated with door-steps,
yates, shutters, and all sorts of portable
property, and in frequent cases good deal
of damage was done. The loss was not
restricted to the city. either. A gentle
man who drove into town from out through
Pleasant Valley said that at one point he
saw three or four wagon wheels hanging
TO trees, while the body Of the vehicle was
lying overturned at some distance away.

A SHARP YOUTH
Departs from Pasadena with {
Well.Fiilcd Purse.

Departs from Pasadena with n
Well.Fiilcd Purse.
1t was rumored ON the streets last
night that bright young man of Pasa-
dena had fled with considerable money
which did not belong to him. This
young man, who had been engaged to
wait upon sick gentleman at the Olive.
wood Hotel, to aid him in dressing and
undressing and to run errands, was given
check upon the Pasadena National
Bank for about $500. which he was to
cash. The check was properly endorsed
and the young man, without waiting to
make up an extensive wardrobe, has
tened to the bank, presented the check,
received the money and departed. After
some time the gentleman who was
waiting for his money became
alarmed and an unsuccessful
search was made for the youth. Word
was received in this city yesterday after
noon of this transa ction and from the
sharp glances cast by the police at the
incoming train last evening, it was sur.
missed that they were on the lookout for
the missing youth. So far as could be
learned the description of the young
fellow is as follows: Young man Of
about Is years of age, medium
height, and attired in pepper gray
suit. 1t is further stated that an influ.
ential clergyman of Pasadena is inter-
ested in the youth and is in this city
hoping that he may be captured and re.
turned to the paths of honesty before it
ia too late for reform. There seems to
be some difference of opinion as to wheth.
er the young man came to this city and
is in hiding, or whether he has silently
departed for other and more congenial
clin,es.

True State of the Case Given by
Authority.
There has been most outrageous exag.
gerations of the smallpox published in
some of the Eastern papers, and last
night there was meeting on the sub.
ject, held at the Board of Trade rooms
The following dispatch was prepared
and sent to the Associated Press: "Since
the first appearance Of smallpox in this
city and county, there have appeared,
in population of $4,000 people, forty.
one cases of smallpox; four of which
have proved fatal. The disease is of a
very light form. There is no apprehen-
sion of it becoming epidemic, as all pre-.
cautions have been taken to prevent the
spread Of the disease. Signed by DR.. H..
s. Orme, President of the State Board
of Health; M. Hagan, City Health Off.
Ger; w. II. Workman, Mayor; L. N.
Breed, President of the Council; Thomas
E. Rowan, Chairman of the Board of
Supervisors, and E. l.. Stern, President
of the Board of Trade"
Only one new case of smallpox was
discovered yesterday, that was near the
covered bridge. 1t is safe to say that
all danger Of an epidemic has passed.
Several cases will be discharged to-day:
Doctors Cole, Simpson and Tyreii, OF
the state Board of Health. will arrive
in this city on Sunday, and will meet
with DR.. Orme on Monday.

THE RAILROAD COMMISSION
New Regulations Adopted for
Passengers and Freight.

Passengers and Freight.
New YORK, March 1.-THE Tribune
has the following additional points in
regard to matters agreed on by the rail
roads at their meeting at Commissioner
Fink's office yesterday in relation to
passenger traffic under the Interstate
law: Mileage tickets are abolished, min
listers are to be allowed reduced fares, ex-
cursion tickets are defined to mean
round.trip tickets sold at reduced rates
to a person who, under certain condi
tions, desires to make journey within
a given time 70 given point and return,
aud the intention of the law is taken to
be that all questions, restri ctions, limit.
ations, places and fares are to be left to
the decision of the railway companies
interested. Free baggage weighing $50
pounds is allowed on each full first or
second.class ticket, seventy.iive pounds
on each half ticket, and 100 and fifty
pounds, respectively, on each full or hall
emigrant ticket. Baggage in excess OF
these allowances, up to an absolute limit
of $50 pounds Except to ship immi.
grants) is to be charged not less than II
per cent of the lowest unlimited first
class fare. No commercial baggage,
musical instruments, organs, pianos,
donkeys, horses or theatrical scenery
will be transported as free baggage, and
all excess baggage, orders, bonds and
permits are to be Withdrawn from sale.
When the Joint tariff through fares nre
established, whers two or more connect
ing roads are concerned, party to the
joint tariff cannot make any change,
except after formal notice
to the other parties. Differential fares
for through and competitive business
are to be established by consultation
and agreement. Under the section re-
ferring to the long and short hauls. it is
understood that the law deals with
fares in the aggregate and that the pro-
| portion on q through fare need not of a
necessity control local fares. In the
case of greater charges for a short dis.
tance by reason of the competition oi
water lines or otherwise, the COM
m,ttee believe that they have
no right to permit such fares
to continue or to be made
without the authorization of the Ma
tional Commission. Traffic in connec
tion with the Pacific Coast routes, east
wardly, may be taken at twenty-eigh'
per cent. of the through rate, as th'
proportion of Chicago to the seaboard
as heretofore, with minimum of TWEEN
ty cents from Chicago to New York
provided, that the Transcontinental d
not charge more from any point east O
the Pacific Coast to any intermidist
points west of the Atlantic.

THE FINANCIAL QUESTION.
No Danger Through the Presen
Pressure for Small Coin.

No Danger Through the Present
Pressure for Small Coin.
WASHINGTON, March ll.-In conver.
sation with an Associated Press reporter
tonight, as to the possibility of a financi.
al panic resulting from the accumulation
of the surplus in the Treasury. after all
payable bonds are called, Treasurer
Jordan said that he saw nothing in the
recent situation which was at all likely
to cause panic. There was nothing in
the situation to excite such fear. Should
a panic occur, however, Jordan said
that the Government had full power to
go into the market and buy bonds in or
der to relieve the financial strain, al.
though he could not, of course, speak
for an administration of which he would
soon cease to be a member. He had no
reas on to suppose the resource
would not be applied as
it had been with success on other occa.
sions. The only trouble he apprehended
was the pressure for small currency;
this pressure was being felt even now,
and in his opinion would continue until
about the 10th of April. The Govern.
ment was meeting this demand as fast
as possible, but could never supply it as
fully as desirable. At this season of the
year there was always a demand for
small currency, and the Treasury was
unable to issue silver certificates as fast
as they were called for. This was owing
to no want of provision on the part of
the Treasury Department, but to the
failsre of the Deficiency bill, which
appropriated money for the issue of sill
YER certificates. The Department had
ample facilities but not sufficient money
for that purpose. There was no reason
for alarm, however; it was simply
spring demand for small currency, and
there were about $4,000 900 of five
dollar and ten-dollar gold coins ia the
New York Sub.Treasury alone, and
about 800, 900, 900 more in small money
available with which to meet any such
emergency. Tho Department would
supply silver certificates as far as possi-
BILE, and any additional demand would
simply entail on the banks difference
in cash between the transportation OF
silver certificates and other currency.
